I am finicky about making sure my sneakers are pretty tight. It is almost like a superstition for me.
From John McEnroe
I like to be close to water and the ocean, particularly. I love to get out and body surf. I like mountain biking, too.
I went to play in Brazil when I had just turned 18 and was the world's top junior player. I got to the airport, and no one knew who I was. I couldn't speak any Portuguese, and no one spoke English. Then someone said something that resembled 'tennis,' and I went with that.
London is great, but New York is the greatest city in the world.
I went on safari in South Africa just after apartheid had ended.
I remember when I was younger taking more pride in Wimbledon than the French. That and the U.S. Open - they were the ones I wanted to win.
There's a certain beauty and majesty to Wimbledon. The elegance, the way the grass looks on TV.
I'd never left America until I was 18.
I don't think enough players channel the energy of the crowd. If it's done properly, and you don't let anger overwhelm and distract you, it's like a shot of adrenaline in the arm, and it gets the crowd pumped up.
When I walk out there on court, I become a maniac... Something comes over me, man.
